Finland's happy son-in-law

Pop singer Adam Lambert tries to find a balance between his dark and light side. He found true love with his Finnish partner, Sauli Koskinen.

Singer Adam Lambert arrives at our meeting in a hotel in Los Angeles dressed in all black and greets me in fluent Finnish.
- Moi! Mitä kuuluu?
Adam rose to success from American Idol, and up until a couple of years ago, described himself as someone who likes to flirt and date a lot. Meeting Sauli Koskinen, 26, over a year ago in Helsinki changed him.
- I'm totally faithful, monogamous. A relationship is a beautiful thing. I believe we both want the same thing. I was ready for true love and I'm happy to have found it, Adam sums up his relationship with Sauli.

Salty licorice and shots

Last year, Adam and Sauli spent Valentine's Day in Tahiti. This year, Adam is traveling the world promoting his new album.
- Sauli is welcome to join me whenever it's possible. I always try to arrange something nice for special occasions.
The couple spend much of their free time at their home on the Hollywood hills.
- We did yoga for a while last year, but neither of us felt like it was our thing. We'd rather go for walks or jogging, and we have a treadmill at home. We watch tv and movies and cook together. We have a lot of salmiakki (salty licorice) at home, but I don't care for it. Other than that, I like Finnish food and culture.
Adam is also familiar with Finnish drinks from his vacation in Finland over last Christmas. One drunken night in Helsinki made headlines around the world. In the small hours, Adam was taken into custody in Pasila and Sauli in Töölö.
- It was a perfect holiday, apart from one mistake, a night out where the strong mint schnapps tasted too good and resulted in a loss of control, Adam says.
He and Sauli worked through the incident right after it happened.
- We laughed about it, right after we'd gotten over the initial shock and made sure no one was hurt. Sauli's family made fun of me, too - ”oh, you went to jail for getting drunk. Welcome to Finland!”
Adam says things happen in life and you learn from your mistakes.
- We talked more about what happened after we got home. Time helped put it into perspective. I understood that I have responsibilities to myself, my loved ones, my family, my friends and my fans. That December night was childish, out-of-control and irresponsible. I have to take more responsibility for my actions in future and be more careful around alcohol.

Meeting Sauli's family

When Adam talks about the good things on his visit to Finland, his face lights up in a wide, genuine smile and his voice rises in enthusiasm. The reason for visiting Finland, meeting Sauli's family, was a success.
- It was important to both of us that I get to know Sauli's family. We had a lovely, traditional Christmas Eve at his parents' home. His mom, dad and sisters were nice. I followed things from the sidelines at times, because the main language of the evening was Finnish. But it was only fair, since Sauli has been in the same position in Los Angeles.
Adam has had to resort to body language before. When he was 19, he performed on a cruise ship with the Anita Mann group. The gig lasted ten months, and during that time, he also visited Finland for the first time.
- I sailed around the world with an international crew. The experience broadened my horizons, and I understood how small my home town San Diego really is.
A couple of years later, he performed in a production of Hair in Germany.
- I didn't speak any German, but I learned to communicate without words. I had to explain a lot of things using my hands and different facial expressions. Sometimes not sharing a language is challenging, frustrating and confusing, but there's a magic to body language. And it's often more honest than repeating learned phrases.

Light side, dark side

Adam admits that it's been a challenge to find a balance in his life. Over recent years, his attitude and style have changed. Openness, maturity and his love for Sauli show in the lyrics on his new album, Trespassing.
- I invite listeners to trespass into my life, I open up about both the light and the dark side of myself. Success has maximized my scale of emotion. The good times are amazing, the bad times are really dark.
Being judged, ignored and treated unfairly are experiences familiar to Adam.
- I'm different, I'm an outsider, and not everyone accepts me because of that. When I'm down, I'm a self-desctructive worrier who overanalyzes things. At those times, I'm critical and hard on myself.
Usually, Adam is a nice guy.
- I'm also a romantic, that's my light side. I've written songs about love – about finding the right one, which has now happened to me.
Sometimes Adam feels like he can't live without his other half.
- He keeps me grounded, even when I'm flying too high. Sometimes it seems like he knows me better than I know myself.

Violence is not to be taken lightly. Embarrassed by drunkenness. No punches thrown, no injuries and no charges. Media always exaggerates.

"ADAM LAMBERT DON'T HATE FINLAND" BY MICEROCKS


"Adam Lambert and BF Get in Drunken Lovers' Spat, Get Arrested, Get Burgers"

REVIEWING THE NEWS: Oy vey. Adam Lambert and Finnish Big Brother alum/bf Sauli Koskinen get wasted and cause a scene, and their hangover humiliation becomes global news? Yawn.

See, Adam only fits the definition of one kind of swinger.
(Credit: Djansezian/Getty)

Honeys, let me tell you all something: I've had my share of blackouts, and lord knows Jairem and I have lived through more than a lifetime's worth of Vodka-fueled spats. The only difference is niether of us are as Absolut a hottie as Adam Lambert's teeny little beau, Finnish Big Brother star Sauli Koskinen. (I wouldn't mind having him get under my Koskinen.)

Also, we've never been to Helsinki, Finland, or to its fabulous DTM ("Don't Tell Mama") club, which is precisely where Lambskin got into their already notorious little tiff last night. Rumors have been flying all morning about their alleged scrape, but The Hollywood Reporter got the dish straight from Adam and Sauli's holding cell. In brief, the couple were intoxicated, arguing inside DTM, and then outside the club. Their friend, former Miss Helsinki (naturally) Sofia Ruusila (welcome to your 15 minutes, honey!), says she got in the middle and was accidentally thwacked by Lambert.

Ruusila is fine, the gentlemen have been released, and Lambert has already Tweeted the following morning-after prose: "Jetlag+Vodka=blackout. Us÷blackout=irrational confusion. jail+guilt+press=lesson learned.Sauli+Adam+hangover burgers= laughing bout it. :)"

I'm not pretending that everyone's favorite should-have-been American Idol champ isn't capable of bad-boy celebrity antics, nor would there be anything to laugh about had he intentionally laid five fingers on Miss Helsinki (an act for which she could most certainly sue for five figures). But we can all assume Ruusila's account is the truth, because Lambert is a glamazon, not a gorilla. And, darlings, I know that "Better Than I Know Myself."

IN OTHER WORDS: See what I did there?

IF I HAD TO RELEASE A TWEET ABOUT BURGERS EVERY TIME I GOT DRUNK, INSULTED JAIREM AND WOKE UP IN A FINNISH INTERROGATION ROOM

TEXT:

Adam to spend Christmas in Finland!

American pop star Adam Lambert arrived in the Helsinki-Vantaa airport alone on Monday like any regular person.

Seiska has received numerous tips in the past few weeks about the plans of Sauli Koskinen, 26, also known for winning Big Brother, and American singer Adam Lambert, 29, to spend Christmas together in Finland.

Sauli arrived in Finland the weekend before last but didn't say a word about his boyfriend joining him. The tips turned out to be true, however, and Adam flew in to rainy Finland directly from his Shanghai gig around three o'clock on Monday afternoon.

The world-famous pop star traveled alone and ended up in the arrivals lobby of terminal 2 of Helsinki-Vantaa carrying two large suitcases and visibly surprised by the welcome he received. In addition to a few representatives of the media, there was a gaggle of screaming, jumping teenage girls, who were overjoyed to get autographs from their great idol.

Adam politely declined any interviews but did tell us his flight had gone well and that he was excited to be visiting Finland.

Sauli was nowhere to be seen; instead, Adam took his luggage and marched to the airport taxi counter, where he was directed to the taxi station outside like any regular person.

According to Seiska's sources the lovebirds plan to spend Christmas with Sauli's family in Hyvinkää, but Adam refused to comment on the couple's plans.

We hope the popular singer gets a warm impression of Finnish Christmas, even if there's no snow on the ground.


BUBBLES:

picture blurbs clockwise from left:

(white box) Sauli met his Adam a year ago at Jenny Woo in Helsinki at the afterparty of the American star's concert.

(yellow box) Adam received a box of chocolates from a young fan and, grateful, stuffed it into his bag. Something sweet to give to Sauli! [lol this is impossible to translate 100% ~faithfully but i'm hoping i managed to capture the utter innocence of the comment]
the speech bubble says "Welcome Adam!"

(white box) Adam was adorably flustered by the attention he got. - This was a great surprise, he told the fans who met him at the airport.

(white box at top right) Adam had no idea how to get out of the airport. The airport taxi counter coldly directed him outside to the taxi queue.
speech bubbles: "How do I get to Sauli's from here?" - "The line is outside!"

(yellow box) Adam was dragging two large suitcases, which he loaded into the taxi waiting outside.
speech bubble: "Here we go!" [lol impossible, i tell you]

(yellow box) The pop star was carrying a leather handbag on his arm. He replied to the reporter's Christmas wishes with a polite "Thank you!" before getting into the taxi, whose rear lights then disappeared into the dark, foggy December afternoon.

(white box) Sporting a grey beanie, the idol peered at his fans shyly from behind a pair of trendy sunglasses. He was wearing a long cardigan with a tattered hem, a tube scarf, shiny jeans, zippered boots and a gradation dyed grey sweater.

”IT’S GREAT TO BE HERE!"
Article by Ilta-Sanomat/Kati Pukki December 20, 2011

"The American pop star Adam Lambert arrived yesterday in Finland for a surprise visit.

The atmosphere at the Helsinki-Vantaa airport was excited on Monday afternoon. The rumor about the American pop star Adam Lambert’s possible arrival to Finland had reached also the local fans, since there were about a dozen eager fans waiting for their idol at the arrival hall.
A little after three in the afternoon, Lambert, who was wearing a gray beanie, black clothes and big round sunglasses, stepped into the hall with a relaxed smile. He stopped in no hurry to talk with his fans and posed for their cameras.
A little boy, who had come to the airport with his mother, gave Lambert a box of chocolates and wished him welcome to Finland.
Lambert was genuinely surprised by the unexpected welcoming committee at the airport.
- Hi guys, how are you? Wow, this is a really big surprise! the pop star exclaimed in a good mood after seeing the fans.
Lambert flew to Finland straight from Shanghai. He arrived alone with two big suitcases. Boyfriend Sauli Koskinen was not at the airport to meet his love.

Lambert told IS that he came to Finland to meet people.
- I came to visit, to meet many people, a smiling Lambert said.
More than that he wasn’t willing to answer to the reporters’ questions.
- Now is not a time for an interview, Lambert pointed out and laughed.

Except for the black sunglasses, nothing in Lambert’s being or his behavior spoke of him being an international megastar. He smiled at the cameras, waved at his fans and stepped out with all the other passengers totally peacefully and calmly.
- It’s great to be here! he shouted still before hopping into a cab, escorted by fan girls’s screams.
Lambert wouldn’t tell how long he is going to stay in Finland, but at least his boyfriend Sauli Koskinen has told that he will spend the whole Christmas here with his family. Koskinen arrived in Finland from Los Angeles already last week.

In the IS-Tutka that was published yesterday on IS website, Sauli told that he was depressed because there is no snow in Finland and he was hoping for snow cannons to Helsinki.
- I’ve missed people, I was nervous while coming here and I had butterflies in my stomach when I left. I intend to have a blast, meet my friends and spend a peaceful Christmas with my family. It’s going to be a very traditional Christmas.
For his possible American guests Sauli would like [to show] the Christmassy Helsinki and street views from the city.
- I would show all kinds of places, but this weather is now so gloomy. It makes me a bit angry, but compared to LA, Helsinki is really a much better looking city, Sauli says in IS-Tutka."
